Razia has been a pet card of mine for over a decade now, but for good reason she doesn't see much EDH play. Still I've soldiered on, with this equipment-based voltron build. Razia is only one away from the 7 power sweet-spot, so getting her in a position where she's a clock isn't difficult, given that we get to cast her. That said, lots of ramp and land searching are here, as well as Inspiring Statuary to make our equipment mana-rocks.

Razia beatdown after being equipped with a few swords and a Purification to clear the board is the dream, but Assemble the Legion/Khemba are our back-up options. Beyond that we have the infinite combo of Experimental Frenzy/Top/Grape Shot to give us a nice combo kill when our Commander inevitably because to costly to cast.

An 8cmc Commander with 3 toughness is less than ideal, but I think I've done the best I could!
